– Be passionate about and have an open mind towards all genres of music.
– Be driven towards a career in the music and/or entertainment industry.
– Be well-versed in Internet culture and social media platforms.

Details:
Intern will assist our YouTube Copyright supervisors by providing extensive research on music markets and monetization opportunities. Topics for exploration include client acquisition strategy. You will spend the day gathering analytics on potential clients and other avenues for expansion; this information must be compiled into spreadsheets for review. Day-to-day office tasks include but not limited to: running staff errands, updating spreadsheets and other administrative work. If needed, intern will also assist marketing and PR team (on per-project basis) with blog posts, social media posts, client research, etc.

You must be willing to treat every experience as an opportunity to grow. This is not an experience in production or content creation. Rather, you will learn how to navigate the daily operations of research and development for an MCN, and you will begin establishing your own network of music industry connections.

Compensation: A small reimbursement stipend will be given at the end of each full month worked. Academic credit is also available.
